      This is quite challenging, I tried with my father and I gave up. Be strong!

      I'll use a couple of slightly old laptops. I'll try to install Leap and will hand over them to in-laws and mum to encourage them to move to open source. Convincing them might take another Hack week project add-emoji

      • Installation went without problems.
      • KDE Plasma is the choice.
      • Firewall was a bit challenging
      • CUPS + HP MFP 135W works over WPS qiute nice

      As a side quest I also installed Tumbleweed on my old ThinkPad T40p. That thing still works, but with 1GB RAM and 40GB IDE/PATA hard drive it's horribly slow :-)
